Sensitivity of the SHiP experiment to light dark matter
Ahdida, C.; Akmete, A.; Albanese, R.; Alexandrov, A.; Anokhina, A.; Aoki, S.; Arduini, G.; Atkin, E.; Azorskiy, N.; Back, J. J.; Bagulya, A.Dark matter is a well-established theoretical addition to the Standard Model supported by many observations in modern astrophysics and cosmology. In this context, the existence of weakly interacting massive particles represents an appealing solution to the observed thermal relic in the Universe. Indeed, a large experimental campaign is ongoing for the detection of such particles in the sub-GeV mass range. Adopt...
Microscale flow dynamics of red blood cells in microchannels: an experimental a...
Lima, Rui A.; Nakamura, M.; Omori, T.; Ishikawa, Takuji; Wada, Shigeo; Yamaguchi, TakamiApproximately, the half volume of the blood is composed of red blood cells (RBCs) which is believed to strongly influence its flow properties. Blood flow in microvessels depends strongly on the motion, deformation and interaction of RBCs. Several experimental studies on both individual and concentrated RBCs have already been performed in the past (Goldsmith 1971, Goldsmith and Marlow 1979, Chien et al. 1984, Go...
Microscale flow dynamics of red blood cells in a circular microchannel
Lima, Rui A.; Nakamura, M.; Ishikawa, Takuji; Tanaka, Shuji; Takeda, Motohiro; Imai, Yohsuke; Tsubota, Ken-ichi; Wada, Shigeo; Yamaguchi, TakamiThe blood flow dynamics in microcirculation depends strongly on the motion, deformation and interaction of RBCs within the microvessel. This paper presents the application of a confocal micro-PTV system to track RBCs through a circular polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) microchannel. This technique, consists of a spinning disk confocal microscope, high speed camera and a diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) laser combined w...
